Re: [jboss-as7-dev] Web Service Failures

It appears that all the recent web service CI failures are caused by a JDK bug. I have filed a bug report with oracle the following details, although it has not been confirmed and issued a bug ID yet: Stuart ------- The method sun.net.www.http.HttpClient#available() can throw java.net.SocketException, which can cause the creation of the HttpClient to fail. This will happen if there is a connection in the cache that has timed out and the socket has been closed. This method was added in a recent commit: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7u/jdk7u/jdk/diff/e6dc1d9bc70b/src/share/cl... The exception is: Caused by: java.net.SocketException: Socket Closed at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.getOption(PlainSocketImpl.java:286) [rt.jar:1.6.0_38] at java.net.Socket.getSoTimeout(Socket.java:1032) [rt.jar:1.6.0_38] at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.available(HttpClient.java:356) [rt.jar:1.6.0_38] at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.New(HttpClient.java:273) [rt.jar:1.6.0_38] at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.New(HttpClient.java:310) [rt.jar:1.6.0_38] at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getNewHttpClient(HttpURLConnection.java:987) [rt.jar:1.6.0_38] at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.plainConnect(HttpURLConnection.java:923) [rt.jar:1.6.0_38] at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.connect(HttpURLConnection.java:841) [rt.jar:1.6.0_38] at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getOutputStream(HttpURLConnection.java:1031) [rt.jar:1.6.0_38] at org.apache.cxf.transport.http.HTTPConduit$WrappedOutputStream.handleHeadersTrustCaching(HTTPConduit.java:1410) The getSoTimeout() call should probably be in a try/catch block. It appears that other people have also run into this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14270311/rather-mysterious-socketexcep... _______________________________________________ jboss-as7-dev mailing list jboss-as7-dev(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/jboss-as7-dev
